Denis, Russia

We had a problem with one of our rooms. The staff was very helpful in arranging a replacement room.

Timothy, United States of America

Good location. It was very central. Groceries and restaurants are everywhere. The hotel is around 15minute walk to marienplatz. Special mention to the staff they were very friendly and accommodating.

Thea, Philippines

Awesome location... walkable to shopping are, mainly Marienplatz, and to museums area. Very close to train station.

Catherine, Canada

Room was nice and clean. We were traveling by train and this hotel is less than a five minute walk from the station. Staff was very friendly and helpful; stored our luggage when we arrived, gave us directions for walking to Oktoberfest, then stored our luggage the following day while we visited sites until our early evening train.

Kathryn, United States of America

Very close to Munich Main Train station. Reasonably close to Marienplatz, you could walk but a short Tram or train ride is easier. The hotel is in a very culturally diverse area which one review I read seemed to make some feel uncomfortable or unsafe. We did not find this to be the case and rather enjoyed the diversity.

Stay in the Heart of Munich –

One of our best sellers in Munich! This hotel lies in the center of Munich, a 3-minute walk from Munich Main Station. The family-run Hotel Cristal offers spacious rooms, à la carte dining and a parking garage.

The modern rooms at Hotel Cristal include a flat-screen TV, mini-bar and a private bathroom. Broadband internet and Wi-Fi are available in the whole hotel.

A rich breakfast buffet is provided from 07:00 to 11:00 each morning in the Hotel Cristal. 1912 Restaurant & Bar offers Mediterranean cuisine and the bistro bar serves wines, cocktails and snacks.

The Hotel Cristal is a 5-minute walk from the Theresienwiese beer festival location, and the shopping and pedestrian area at Karlsplatz.

Guests enjoy good underground and S-Bahn (city rail) connections from nearby Munich Main Station. It is only 25 minutes to the Allianz Arena, and 40 minutes to the Munich Exhibition Center or Munich Airport.

Ludwigsvorstadt is a great choice for travelers interested in beer, architecture and old-town exploration.

This is our guests' favorite part of Munich, according to independent reviews.

Couples in particular like the location – they rated it 8.2 for a two-person trip.

“I don't plan to stay there again in the future.”
- • Business trip

- • Double or Twin Room
- • Stayed 1 night
Just about everything except the location. The receptionist tried to be helpful but was not very enthusiastic about it. The bar person was quite rude when I asked for a beer. The room was stifling hot and fairly noisy. Breakfast was average and I could not find warm milk for my coffee. The towels were small and the bathtub/shower was hard to get in and out of. Shower had a funny angle and was not very useful. No amenities other than a shower cap. Liquid soap dispenser was used for everything, hand soap, shower get, shampoo etc. Considering the price, it was very disappointing. I guess you don't get much for your money in Munich.
Not much. The only thing going for it is the closeness to the central train station.

Reception was barely around, usually had to get the bartender to get someone down, requiring us to wait for a while for any service/questions. Maybe short staffed due to holiday season?
Great location, close to main train station and supermarkets.

“Nice stay”
- • Solo traveler

All was okay except for no hot water on the morning of departure, but it was 4 am and maybe something went wrong at night. I could really hear the neighbours going through the corridor and watching TV next door. And neighbourhood might seem diverse and unsafe to some but I liked it. Overall it was not bad for me, so would recommend it. Parking is 15 eu per day (
Hotel looks a bit old, though cozy inside. Upon check in I was offered to pay extra 20 eu for a quiet room. It was very nice, so I say it was worth it, though a free upgrade would have been better. Breakfast was until 11, quite good, worth 16 eu on spot. There is a late bar and snack bar at the reception, good for late night arrival. The location is super close to central station which was perfect for the morning transfer to the airport.

Good location. It's about 3 easy blocks from the main shopping street, and around the corner from the main train station. Bonus is the excellent Bavarian restaurant on the back of the block.
